I know that if I was bidding on a Josh Gibson signature on anything, I'd like the answer to who owned it, where it came from, and how it was obtained...in addition to someone's opinion on its validity.<br /><br />I mean just look at REA Auctions..on a rare piece like that you will get a full page write up or at least a couple of paragraphs regarding the provenance.<br /><br />CC auctions just has one sentence blurbs..rare and authentic signed Josh Gibson pants..certified authentic...okay I'll bid!<br /><br />Ricky Y
